DENVER (DP) - Sandy Dahl, who channeled
the tragedy of her husband's death on
Sept. 11, 2001, into a powerful campaign
to honor his memory, has died.
Dahl apparently passed away in her sleep,
said family friend David Dosch.
Dahl's husband, Jason, was the captain of
United Flight 93 on 9/11. She strongly
believed Jason fought alongside
passengers to keep terrorists from
crashing the plane into the U.S. Capitol or
the White House.
After Jason's death, Dahl became a public
face for all grieving 9/11 families. She
founded a scholarship fund in Jason's
honor, to provide funding for young pilots
to receive their education. And she
gradually warmed to public speaking, to
make sure the heroism of Jason and many
others aboard Flight 93 was not forgotten.
